- Set Expander for Any Language (SEAL)
http://www.rcwang.com/seal
Set expansion refers to expanding a given partial set of objects into a more complete set. A well-known example system that does set expansion using the web is Google Sets. SEAL uses a novel method for expanding sets of named entities. The approach can be applied to semi-structured documents written in any markup language and in any human language.
- Richard's Automatic Named Entity Translator (RANET)
This MT system applies statistics on snippets (search results) returned by Google, Yahoo, and AlltheWeb. It is specifically designed for translating named entities (popular location/person names, book/movie titles, biological terms, etc.). This system is provided for educational and research purposes only. The results are not gauranteed to be even near correct since it is still under development. Please do not *abuse* the system.
- Personalized Meta-Search Engine
http://www.boowa.com
This meta-search engine combines, merges, and re-ranks results obtained by sending queries to other search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and MSN. Everytime a user clicks on a link, the system memorizes (only within a browser's session) some keywords from the snippet and re-ranks future rounds of search based on those memorized keywords.
- Template Filler for Space-Request E-mails
http://www.rcwang.com/radar
This is a system that extracts relevant information from space-request e-mails and fills a pre-defined template with these information. Click here if you would like to learn more about this system.
